Nepal's President Bidhya Devi Bhandari arrived here today on her first overseas tour during which she will hold talks with top Indian leadership to strengthen bilateral ties.

"Neighbourhood first. Bidhya Devi Bhandari, President of Nepal, arrives in New Delhi on State Visit to India," the external affairs ministry spokesperson tweeted.

She will hold talks with President Pranab Mukherjee and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, exploring ways to expand cooperation between the two close neighbours whose ties faced some strains following the agitation by the Madhesi community last year.
